I registered a long time ago, but even though I confirmed the registration per hyperlink, on login I got just "The specified username is currently inactive. If you have problems activating your account, please contact a board administrator." message.
It's been a really long time ago and I know this only because I noted it (inclusive username, PW, email and even activation link) in a help file.

I'm not sure if it would help at all to resent the activation code, but in the mean time the email provider died, so I can't even use this email address.

So what would be the best course of actions now? I would like to keep the nickname (Hayami) and making a second account would be against the rules too.

Nope, all your emails are getting bounced with the same message, that the account does not exist. Also, when I try going to http://profiles.yahoo.com/<yahoo username> the page comes back saying "The user you are searching for either does not exist, or has chosen to keep their profile private."

Have you been able to successfully send and receive email through those accounts to and from addresses that are not in your address book or safe list? Perhaps there's some setting that's preventing mail from unknown addresses.

Nope, that didn't work either. I just got a bounced email with the same error message: "This user doesn't have a yahoo.com account" followed by the email address which I won't post here for privacy reasons.

I manually sent you an email to that address, so see if you get it and see if you can respond to it.

Looking at newly registered users, I'm assuming you would be The_Akatsuki_Wolf. I show that the email was sent, but that it was bounced back with the following error message "delivery error: dd This user doesn't have a yahoo.com account"

Hey Ken! Webmaster! It's Shining Star! I can't log in to my account and I was on it like three days ago so it wasnt like I was inactive.

I'm one of the mods on here as well as you know and I've been here since Jan. 18th 2005 so I've been here awhile, so could you please help me out with reaccessing my account. I've tried everything and I can't login.

When that's all said and done it would be great if this account could be deleted (the one I'm using right now) cause I don't need two. I only made this one to contact you becuase I didn't know how else to do so.

The email address on my old one for Shining Star is: [email protected] and it's still active. I hope you can help me out on this because I really would love my old account back. Thanks.

I'm having problems sending PM's. Every time I try to send one, something pos up saying that the requested user doesn't exist. Now, I've checked and the people I tried sending things to are still very much active on this site, so obviously they do exist. I've even tried PMing myself, which has always worked in the past, and it still says that the selected user doesn't exist. What's the problem?
